Had posted earlier in the fall about running a jinma hoe off the back of my new B2920,,, now I will likely use this thing 4-5 x /yr so I couldn't see stoping 8k $ on a factory one so I found a used one for $2k and has the dealer install "a loop" in the back to run " other " things, that cost $300
So that's when my project started now understand that the B series isn't quite a small tractor and it isn't quite. Big tractor so it has features of both. Someone here put top n tilt on theirs and I was like WOW that is cooler than a second welfare check In one month so,,,, I orderd a 2 spool valve and with some fittings from TsC I was in buissiness,, then I realized that I had to jam open the control valve to get power to the hoe,,,, now that was all ok as long as I didn't loose the jam nut,,, that had to go.
So with the help from JJ and mr Rook over in the hydraulics forum I was recommended to put selector valves on the tractor so I could select the TnT or hoe, so I ordered one and when it came I realized I needed one for the return also. So after about a month and $500 in needless fittings I got it together and I must say it works nicely. I need to re route some hoses but now I push the two yellow buttons down and I have backhoe pressure and up an it is looped and the TnT works fine and there is another valve for a side link, but that's for another fiscal year.
Boy I got an education in SAE, JIC, hose size everything,,,, the guy at the hydraulics shop hid when they'd see me coming
